One Village, One Article for each village in Albania and Kosovo
WoALUG host online campaign “One Village, One Article”
Throughout March, Wikimedians of Albanian Language User Group got busy organizing our next themed online campaign – One Village, One Article, which lasted during the whole month.
The name of the campaign came from the idea to invite experienced and new Wikipedians to help each village in Albania and Kosovo have its article on sq Wikipedia. However, we found that the majority of these villages already had an article but there was plenty of room to improve them. Therefore, our expectations for the outcomes were to have as many articles on these villages improved and expanded by adding infoboxes, maps, files from Commons, missing information, statistics, etc.
Promoting the campaign
Besides promoting it on our social media and channels used between our community, we also reached out to several online pages used for communication between villagers, asking them to help us spread the campaign to their channels and pages – some were more cooperative than others and helped us recruiting interested participants.
